Abstract (en)
[origin: DE19839993A1] An ice-storage element, especially for vehicle air-conditioning systems, in which the ice-storage medium contains a foaming agent or thickener which ensures that the medium freezes to form an ice slurry and prevents sloshing when it is thawed. An ice-storage element (28), especially for motor vehicle air-conditioning systems, with a hollow body forming at least one storage space (34) for an ice-storage medium (36) which is liquid when thawed and which can be brought into heat-conducting contact with a coolant. This medium (36) contains a foaming agent or thickener in a quality and quantity sufficient (a) to prevent the medium sloshing about when thawed and (b) to ensure that the medium freezes to form an ice slurry.
